Including declassified fruit from premiers crus Les Baudes and Les Gruenchers, the 2018 Chambolle-Musigny Village offers up a lovely bouquet of raspberries, cherries, orange rind and sweet soil tones. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, lively and supple, revealing a fragrant core of fruit and powdery structuring tannins.

From several parcels, including two premier declassified by the domaine, the 2016 Chambolle-Musigny Village includes 70% whole bunch fruit. It has a slightly ferrous, dried blood-tinged bouquet that blossoms nicely in the glass with fine purity. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit, good substance here with a fine bead of acidity, possessing the rondeur one expects from a village cru Chambolle. I appreciate the length here, and it should drink well over the next decade.

The 2015 Chambolle-Musigny Village includes fruit from Les Baudes and Les Gruenchers (same as previous years), consisting of seven barrels from seven different vineyards according to winemaker Pierre Vincent. To be honest, I found this just a little disjointed at first, as if those vineyards were singing from different hymn sheets. Maybe they just need time? The palate is medium-bodied and demonstrated more cohesion than the aromatics, quite peppery in style especially towards the crunchy, structured finish. I suspect this will improve by the time it is bottled.

The 2014 Chambolle-Musigny Village includes two new vineyards compared to last year from Les Gruenchers and les Fremiets. It has an attractive bouquet, nicely detailed with wilted rose petals infusing the red berry fruit. The palate is fresh and attractive with crisp, red cherry and strawberry fruit, the 40% new oak a little conspicuous towards the finish, though I think that will be assimilated with 2-3 years in bottle.

A blend of five different vineyards, including fruit from the premier cru “La Baude," the 2013 Chambolle Musigny Village includes 50% whole cluster and is matured in 40% new oak. It has an attractive bouquet with detailed redcurrant and raspberry preserve aromas that demonstrate good vigor. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins and nicely judged acidity, the whole-cluster fruit lending the finish vitality and delineation. This is an excellent village cru and comes highly recommended.
